Insert multiple from input checkbox

[mudmin]

I'm not 100{3bc1fe685386cc4c3ab89a3f76566d8931e181ad17f08aed9ad73b30bf28114d} following, but I think I'm getting the gist of what is going on.

You can put something inside the [] on your form input if you need to.

So in other words, if you have

Code:

<input type='checkbox' name='utilizator[]' autocomplete='off' value=''>

You can either put an $id or you can take that thing from my pastebin where I did the insert and then put

Code:

$db->insert('task_list_sub',$fields);

Code:

$newTaskId = $db->lastId();

You can take that newTaskId and put it in your name field

Code:

name='utilizator[<?=$newTaskId]'

Then, when you are in your form processing

Code:

if(!empty($_POST)){

Code:

foreach($_POST['utilizator'] as $key => $value) {

//You'll see that you can

Code:

dump($key);

//and

Code:

dump($value);

//and you have that information separately.

Code:

}

So, here is an example of where I use this in an online ordering system.

On line 6 I want to make sure that the quantity is not 0 or less (if it is, I ignore it)
Then I take each row and turn it into a key->value pair
Then I go row by row and multiply my price x quantity to get the total cost
Then I check to see if that order number was already in the system
If it was, I update the order
If it was not, I insert a new one.
